[orbeon-user] Directory Scanner

[Abhishek Shrivastava]

Hi,

I am trying to use directory scanner processor in an application to get directory structure as below:

        <p:processor name="oxf:directory-scanner">
                <p:input name="config">
                <config>
                                <base-directory>C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.0\webapps\orbeon\WEB-INF</base-directory>
                                <include>*</include>
                                <case-sensitive>false</case-sensitive>
                        </config>
                </p:input>
                <p:output name="data" id="dirOutput" debug="directory"/>
        </p:processor>

I am using this processor in a pipeline called from page-flow as shown below:

<page path-info="/AppBuilder" view="AppView.xsl" id="ApplicationBuilder" xforms="AppModel.xml" model="AppModel.xpl">

Here AppModel.xml is a simple xml which contains <selectedApp> and an <action> node. <selectedApp> node contains directory name to be scanned. AppModel.xpl takes this instance as input and scans directory specified in <selectedApp>. the output from directory scanner goes to an xupdate processor which appends the xml generated by directory scanner to instance data and returns to page-flow. AppView.xsl is an XSLT which will display directories. When user selects a directory again on screen this process will happen again.

This is how I want this application to behave but I am facing following problems:

1. How to get the base-directory node from instance data (<selectedApp>)rather than a hard-coded value?
2. It seems like my pipeline AppModel.xpl is not getting executed. Even when I try to write the out put in a file for debugging purpose it doesn't work.

I will very much appreciate if somebody can help me out here or point what I may be doing wrong here?

Thanks & Regards
